no it was 24 packets 16 would make u an aulter surver 12 a choir singer and 6 front row seat in mass :) but it was 32 to be the pope and free 2 be a saint
No, what the other guys said is correct, they wrote the entire thing for Channel 4. They state that on the comedy connections video (which is included in the full boxed set, good times).
Very true, I once saw an interview with Linehan and Matthews who said that Father Dougals childlike simplicity was based on the similar traits in most priests they had known. Interestinglyhowever, my in-laws are catholic and just wont watch this show.
I brought up the subject of Father Ted to a devout catholic and he said he had never seen it. The look of mild disgust he gave when he said it made me never mention the programme to him again.
I always thought it gave the Catholic church rather an easy time of it, considering.
@gerardk94 100% sure. The writers always intended for the show to be aired on Channel 4 UK. The Irish station RTÉ aired the show as soon as it was possible and still shows repeats.
Funny, I just watched an interview with the writers of this show on Youtube where they claim that Dougal is just a comedy creation, something to get more laughs. Ted is the one based on their experiences of priests.
collect 12 crisps packets sounds about right in this lmao

More priests should be as open-minded as Dougal.. not taking Gods existence and the afterlife for granted.. ! =)

love the way Ted says the L in "dougal" when he says "aww, not again, Dougal". Sometimes I wish I had an Irish accent.

Not true! The guys were working and living in England, wrote for the Fast Show etc. The never even approached RTE. It's an urban myth.
